All Hail Michael Kors

In general, I favor the fall/winter collections over spring/summer, especially when it comes to Michael Kors. I have a soft spot for tweeds, wools, and dark colors. Spring 2011 may have changed my mind. Every look was magnificent. Though I normally relish September, October, and November, I find myself eager for spring now that I've seen this collection.

Oversized blazers and super-long thin belts? Genius.

Bathing suits are tough on a runway--in my opinion often a weak point in a show. A belt may not be the most practical addition to a one piece, but I have to say I love the look.

Kors used this skirt material for a few pieces and in both purple and a rich emerald green. There is something so chic about an over the top skirt with a slim t-shirt and flat leather sandals.

Fantastic gold dress with a casual belt.

I know what you're thinking--this looks like pajamas. You're right, there's a very nighttime look to this (nighttime like going to bed, not nighttime like 10pm fancy dinner). I think there is something so luxurious about silk pants though. Granted, you must be tall and thin for this to work, but she looks so elegant and at the same time so relaxed. Plus, a floor length, navy, silk trench coat is about as good as it gets.
